Atletico are training at Emirates Stadium in preparation for their UEFA Champions League match. |
The incident occurred on the evening of October 20th, when Atletico players arrived for training in preparation for their Champions League qualifying match against Arsenal. According to Marca , the Spanish team discovered there was no hot water in the dressing room area upon their arrival at Emirates Stadium. Despite reporting the problem to stadium staff, the situation was not resolved.
Atletico players were forced to leave the pitch without being able to shower after training – a move considered disrespectful and detrimental to the team's preparation. "The players had no choice but to return to the team hotel to shower. This is not the kind of treatment you would expect at this level," reported Marca .
Atletico's players and coaching staff are reportedly "extremely angry and outraged" by the incident. Some key Atletico players even felt disrespected by having to face such poor facilities at a stadium of the caliber of the Emirates.
Atletico reportedly filed a formal complaint with UEFA, requesting that the organization investigate and address the incident. The club argued that the incident not only caused inconvenience but also violated UEFA's organizational standards.
